Anyone Else having any Luck???

That sounds like alot of fun I always have enjoy wade fishing I have been catching a bunch of catfish here lately out of the Ohio river mostly blues, most of the ones I have been catching are between 10 to 25lbs nothing big a friend of mine caught a blue the other day that was around 70lbs out of the river they didnt have a scale that went that high the fish was released to fight again as are all the catfish we catch.

That is one Fish Ive never caught , But would love too.

I've been drop line fishing hocking the past few weekend.catching some nice channels between 4 to 10 pounds.earlier in year more flatheads then channels,have'nt caught flathead sence early june.do most of my fishing off cr 24,put johnboat in at the bridge.we set around 35 lines down stream just before dark then wait 2 hours then go back check them.we do this process til morning.we also fish from the bank til its time to check the drop lines.

did you ever jug fish. you take an ole clorox jug, fill halfway with water, tie your line to the handle and wait for the jug to take off. we used to slay the catfish n snappin turtles this way as a youngun.
